I love homelabbing as much as the next guy… But at my current job, i get enough fix to not do so much at home. And work sort of acts like my Dev environment and home is my production anymore. I want to run something? I stand up a test at work and often implement it. Once familiar, now it’s faster to setup something similar at home instead of eating precious family or me time. Having said that. I have NUT servers on every UPS/IDF (about 14) and it’s helped numerous times when power is lost. I get a alerts through NTFY and can fix before my UPS goes offline. My batteries are overkill so it buys me about 45-60 minutes too. I’m also now protective and not reactive, so i get to avoid a bunch of complaints. The other bonus: I spend company money and not my own 😅😅. But most stuff is useful and worth it. I learned to also inform upper management and/or owners each time something I good saves my ass so they know its working and not a waste of money. At least it helps avoid the appearance I’m (always) sitting on my ass all day.
